All About Balance

Tomas: How much is this red bike?

Owner: That one? Eighty euros.

Tomas: Eighty? It's a secondhand bicycle. Can you make it cheaper?

Owner: It's a good bike. The brakes work. Look, the blue one is cheaper. Sixty.

Tomas: The blue one is smaller. I can't ride a small bike.

Owner: You can ride any bike. It's all about balance.

Tomas: Can I try the red one?

Owner: Sure. Ride it across the yard.

(Tomas gets on the red bike. He rides three metres and falls off.)

Owner: It's all about balance, like I said.

Tomas: Maybe I'll take the blue one.

Owner: Smart choice. Cheaper and closer to the ground.

Tomas: Can I borrow a helmet too?

Owner: For you? I'll give you two.
